A mortar shell has hit a neighborhood in Damascus but no one was killed or injured, Syrian state TV has reported.
On Monday, the state TV said that the mortar was fired by “terrorists” and hit an area near the parking lot of the Municipal Building in the eastern district of Kafar Souseh in the Syrian capital.

On the same day, the Syrian army said it had taken full control of the al-Eyn farmlands on the outskirts of the western city of Homs, killing a large number of foreign-backed militants in several neighborhoods of the strategic city.

Anti-Syria Takfiri extremists have been behind many of the deadly bombings targeting both civilians and government institutions across the country since the outbreak of the violence.

Turmoil has gripped Syria for over two years, and many people, including large numbers of Syrian soldiers and security personnel, have been killed in the foreign-sponsored militancy.

On June 22, foreign ministers of the countries supporting the extremists in Syria, including Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Jordan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and the United States, agreed to provide them with more weapons.

The Wall Street Journal reported on June 26 that the US spy agency CIA has begun transferring weapons to Jordan in an attempt to arm the Takfiri militants fighting against the Syrian government.
